Scratchpads have been widely proposed as an alternative to caches for embedded systems. Advantages of scratchpads include reduced energy consumption in comparison to a cache and a...
We present a parallel data processor centered around a programming model of so called Parallelization Contracts (PACTs) and the scalable parallel execution engine Nephele [18]. Th...
The Mobile Agents model-based, distributed architecture, which integrates diverse components in a system for lunar and planetary surface operations, was extensively tested in a tw...
